The DogLeg object represents a three-bone leg with an and up-vector control object, and a rigged three bone foot (see MakeFoot). The leg and foot bones are created from a collection of 9 or more guide objects: Femur; Tibia; Metarsal; Middle Pivot; Right Pivot; Left Pivot; and at least 3 objects running from the start of the foot to the end of the toe (this means the foot must be at least a two bone chain). Extra items are added onto the length of the foot.
